OT: What's a 911 worth?, '70 no sunroof with 915 and MFI Options

[zymurgist]

I was just over in the classified section checking out Headrage's sweet sweet /6 .

That got me thinking that I really need a teener more than I need a 911. I'm wondering what the best way to come up with a value for the 911 is... basically almost all of the work on that car (for better or worse) was done by the PO, and I have just been driving and maintaining it. Does anyone have any useful ideas for determining what a fair market value for this car is?

'70-'71 had the 901- 2 years only ... very desireable ... clutch & throwout bearing are $800+ dollars.

MFI pump, stacks, throttle bodies worth more than most 914s. Pump can be recalibrated (expensive) for "E" and "S" engines.

Porsche ran this stuff on the race cars .. injection is timed off the cams for postive squirt.

Junk the car and put the drivetrain / front suspension in a 914 where it really belongs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Oh, the '70 should have been a 2.2L AFAIR .... have an "E" in the shop (Glenn Sagers' car)

The PO recalibrated the MFI pump for this engine because of the displacement (it's a cheater).

Well, the thought has crossed my mind. There's an Olympic Blue 1.7 on a used car lot a couple of miles from my house... hate the idea of taking this mostly sorted car apart, although it does have a few "WTF" items on it.

You are correct sir! The '70 came with the 2.2... but the PO built up a 2.4 engine for this car. It's been a while since I talked to him but I think it has "S" cams. Definitely has Carrera tensioners.

Nice effin' set-up ... jes jokin' about trashin' the car, though the engine package would make a nice movin' teener. It's the rest of the cost to put it in a teener that is intense.

I'd love to have MFI, but I'm a CASOB and will stick with the CIS I have.
